Tail Town is transitioning into a nonprofit while partnering with Kitten Rescue in Los Angeles to provide adoption opportunities and quality cat time for customers.
"They can hold them in their laps, play with them and really get a sense of who the kitties are," says Mathers, whose aim is to find homes for the felines."The purpose of Tail Town is to help get kitties out of kennels, out of that traditional shelter environment that is stressful. It's unhealthy for the cats, both physically and psychologically."
A few small tables and chairs are provided, and drinks are sold in the lobby. But it's mostly about the cats in the 2,000-square-foot space. The brightly-lit lounge features couches, cat beds and shaggy throws for residents to curl up on or crawl under. Green laser dots from a projector skitter across a cement floor scattered with cat toys. Music plays.
We have some long term residents who have been here about a year, but we know the right home will come along soon enough. "They can live here as long as they want until they're adopted," says Mathers."We have some long term residents who have been here about a year, but we know the right home will come along soon enough.""Yes," Mathers replies."Everybody has their favorites and we've had some kitties for a long time. It really feels like we're losing part of the family when they go.
